  1. What a great video. Every panelist had something so interesting to say. I guess that's what it's like when you're smart, huh – the audience hangs on every word.

  2. What do you do when actors cannot market the movie? Christopher Nolan brings out the real heroes in science to do the press… and it ain't gonna be done by nobody else…

  3. Que buena entrevista 👍.
    Paz en el mundo

  4. I cannot wait chris nolan is my favorite filmmaker been seeing his films foe 10 15 years in theaters let's go

  5. Absolutely love what Christopher said about developers in Silicon Valley taking responsibility, and he’s literally the only person I’ve heard say this. I hope and pray people will listen to him.

  6. That interviewer was insufferable. ‘There are a lot of parallels between Fauci and Oppenheimer’. Jesus Christ. No wonder the panel just sat in silence.

  7. Please add a spoiler warning to this video. I learned some things about the film that I wish I hadn’t

  8. Nolan looks like a scientist himself

  9. Where was this recorded ?

  10. It's great how Chris movies create academic conversation, as it happened with Interstellar. His project is just more than a movie.

  11. The problem is the United States Govt hasn't learned anything, and is more dangerous than ever ☢️🚀🔥

  12. A world conscious of its history will continue to be a victim of its devices because it is too proud to acknowledge the plan of its creator.

  13. 🏖 obviously those involved in trying to portray J. Rob Oppenheimer, in the movie, have a hurried tone in their voice.🍄Those people involved in the movie project are trying to cover for a crime that was committed in association with Atomic Weapons.🧨🍄There is attempts to claim property that doesnt belong to them, also to claim intellectual properties and resources that do not belong to them.🤑Those people that are involved in the movie are USA Enemies who want to attack the USA. ⚛ Those people involved in the portrayal are dangerous ORKS_OGRES! 👹

  14. Cillian gonna have to top out over Sam Waterson (from Law & Order fame)…who protrayed Oppenheimer brilliantly in the tv-series on Oppenheimer way back in early 80s….that tv-series was brilliantly directed including the acting….perhaps this movie is based on similar theme lines….i have not seen the movie….but the tv-series from early 1980s had me glued…..totally glued!….in the words of a famous 90's hollywood movie where the lead says….."its horrible stuff sir….its one of those things we wish we could dis-invent"

  15. Chuck is a propagandist that tried to propagandize wrongfully bringing up Russia’s invasion of Ukraine when it was the USA that actually started the Ukraine crisis & escalated towards potential Nuclear holocaust.

  16. 25:35 Fauci / Oppenheimer was a great comparison, they both created the problem they were later set to solve.

  17. An NBC anchor talking about the decline of democracy, how ironic.

  18. I can confidently say that this is the going to be the most important film of our time! It takes genius to make a film about a genius…and I hope the nuanced themes come across to the audience easily in the same manner as it did from this interview

  19. Worth a listen. The 3 Dreams of J. Robert Oppenheimer. https://youtu.be/AbN-BAaId6M

  20. Great discussion and Chuck did a terrific job moderating! What an interesting bunch of people they collected lol

  21. Comparing Fauci to Oppenheimer is such a joke. One is a provable liar and the other spoke the truth

  22. Powerful movie with a powerful message for a certain, uncertain TIME.

  23. I am sure scientists in China are of democratic leaning at heart.

  24. They seem to talk about Oppenheimer with sense of great reverence. I hope the movie doesn't attempt to make us feel empathy for the "tortured soul" Oppenheimer, or try to glorify him.
    His actions directly lead to the literal disintegration of hundreds of thousands of people.

  25. This was a fascinating watch, I'm even more excited to see the film now
